I may go up and take a peek without my boat.

One of my customer's has a mostly blue/purple 36' Nortech Cat with a new pair of Wesseldyk's supercharged engines. Dave Wesseldyk may also go up to watch.

The first 4 boats to return on the first leg of the event were various Cats...i.e. Skater, MIT, Mystic, the 5th boat was an 47'/51' Outer Limits, and the 6th boat was a mostly red, tripple engine 50' Hustler out of St. Joe, MI. The 7th boat was a 36' Nortech Cat.

The very first boat/participant to arrive had paint graphics with mostly gold and black colors---just not sure of the Make/length and was the FIRST of the ALL the boats to arrive.

Wind seemed to be coming out of the East making the water conditions pretty much Dead Calm---it was definately a day pretty much for the CAT hulls.

Lots of cool hardware and great weather.

I think the new course with the boats returning to Charlevoix's Round Lake for lunch was a great idea because it gave onlookers a greater opportunity to see the boats take off and return again.

That would be Ron's new 4012 flight club skater with mercury 1100's and Vinnie Rifice on the sticks. Nice work guys!
